Are foreign organizations allowed to be included as subcontractors for PCORI awards?

Yes. Foreign organizations and nondomestic components of organizations based in the United States (US) may be included as subcontractors for PCORI awards. Note that, in general, PCORI’s assessment of the inclusion of foreign organization subcontractors will follow similar requirements and considerations as laid out in the framework assessing foreign organizations’ eligibility as prime contractors for PCORI funding. Applicants should provide a thorough and thoughtful justification.
